Early in the morning our team coach came to our cabin opening the door as if his a mad man being chased by the god damn mad dog.
"Wake up lazy bones it's a bright new day." He yelled
I opened my eyes a bit and got a glimpse of him with my one eye open he was wearing a red T-shirt and some black shorts in my mind I was like this guy has gone CRAZY, I unlock my phone to check the time my eyes get wide with a shock of what they were seeing.
"It's 5am are you insane… do we look like roasters to you?" I whispered
Nick who is still in the deep slumber called me "Ty" My head fell back to my pillow in few seconds I felt someone pulling my cover away "Come on Ty get up" he pulled my hand
"Hmm…" I got up with my eyes still closed when I got out of the door and slightly heard Nick talking to Alex
"I'm sorry his morning usually starts at 8am on weekends and he really hates camp"
"It's okay I understand, I mean no one like to wake up at 5am on Saturday." Alex said
We got in the showers each person had their own privacy no auditions watching while taking a shower. After we went to the cafeteria and had our breakfast with Kim and Lian we had eggs , Beacon, Toast and some sausages you name it we start eating "At lease the food is good" I whispered
"You see Ty, not all is bust today" Nick said
I look at Nick "Don't be so sure it's still morning you think we woke up at 5am for nothing the worst is yet to come" I took a bite of my sausage.
As we get outside each team coach came holding a box that had T-shirts of the colours each team, we were given our shirts according to our sizes then I notice Alex kept on looking at me but when I look at him he looks away in my mind I was like what's up with him. Alex then gathered all of us red team
"Hey guys" our captain said we all looked at him "my name is Alex I'm your team coach our team will be known as Team Roaster" I quickly looked at him.
"Oh wow really you don't say" I said it with sarcasm tone he looked at me and made a smirk smile and the whole team laughed
Nick looked back and forth at me and Alex "Don't mind him please" looking at Alex he turned to me "Ty enough with your sarcasm his our team coach behave yourself"
I looked at him and knotted my head "Fine his off the hook for now" Nick smiled shaking his head
On the purple team
"Hey guys my name is Bobby and our team will be known as Team Lavender
On the green team
"Hey everyone my name is April and our team will be known as Team Nature
On the yellow team
"Hey guys my name is Kathy and our team will be known as Team Yellow Stars
"Each team will have its own activity they going to play it's nothing difficult they are fun activities that we all going to enjoy" Kathy said
"Yes as Kathy said it's going to be fun activities that we hope to work together we are the coaches but don't mean we over power your opinions or suggestions so if anyone have suggestions of activities we should try out feel free to share in that order let's see what each team is going to play" Bobby said
Then Alex brought a bowl that have some small papers inside "Alright guys I need one person from each team to come forward please" then one person from each team went and picked one piece of paper at once and read what activity each team was going to play and activities begin:
TEAM LAVENDER where playing Alaskan Baseball.
One girl was in the centre and others made a circle surrounding her, she was blind folded holding a plastic baseball bat each student threw a ball one at the time and others gives instructions where she should hit from.
TEAM NATURE where playing bow and arrow.
They had five boards few meters away and five students were learning how to shot an arrow using archery set and each individual took turns.
TEAM YELLOW STARS were in the mood for some swimming they went for canoeing.
Everyone was bad one canoe rolled over after the other which was pretty hysterical to other teams in that moment I was thank god I was not part of the yellow stars.
TEAM RED we were playing spud this name made me hate the game already.
Each student is assigned a digit that begins with one and goes on, we made a circle with one student in the centre who holds the ball a softball and he throws the ball in the air and call out the number randomly.
When we were done I was sweating like a pig then everyone were sitting down relaxing a bit and chatting as I was standing I felt Nick felt grab my elbows making me sit on him then everyone went silence staring at us "Relax and no we are not a couple"
"They are not lying both of them are best friends with unique closeness that confuses everyone like you all are right now" Lian whispered
"Wait a minute what do you mean unique closeness like friends with benefits?"
"No we have our limits but the short answer is we are comfortable with each other" As Nick and I continue to answer back by back questions about our close 'friendship' relationship Alex came to us and tapped me on my shoulder as he came from behind I looked back and smiled why I don't know.
"Tyler, right?" He asked
"Eh Yeah" I replied
"I just wanted to say that you did good for someone who hates camp" My smiled faded then he turned and walked away.
I slowly turned my head and looked at Nick "You told him?"
"I had to tell him something after your roaster act out this morning" I just gave him a glance of the serial killer then I stood up and left Nick followed.
"Ty come on really!" He yelled while others were smiling and laughing at him.
We went to the showers after I was so refreshed and hungry Nick and I met up with Lian and Kim we just grabbed some snacks and walked to the table then I noticed Alex looking at me and we keep eye lock contact until I bumped into Nick then Alex laughed in more cute way.
"Ty where you lost?" Nick asked
I looked at him "Nowhere sorry" I whispered then looked at Alex again. Nick looked in the direction I'm looking at and he was like "I see" I looked at him he had this annoyed face I've never seen before.
We sat down and ate our snacks I kept on thinking about Alex and nick what was going on I was really confused torn between the two then suddenly Nick stood up.
"I just remembered I need to do something" I looked up at him "I'll catch up with you guys later" he said
"What about your snacks?"
"I'll eat it later" then he turned and left I just kept on looking at him

Later that day
As we were sitting around the bonfire we were so bored this was not like camp rock where we had to sit down and sing or listen to once upon a time stories but there always have to be one person who comes up with crazy stupid idea.
"Hey guys how about we all play flashlight catch the flag" and the rest go along with it of cause.
"Yeah that's a great idea plus we are bored"
Four teams decided that they wanted to play flashlight catch the flag where four teams will get different glowing sticks and flashlights the field is also established in four halves representing four sides, each team hides their glowing sticks carefully in their assigned fields making sure one stick is out of visible.
The three team hides their glowing sticks and one team are assigned to find the glowing sticks using the flashlights and hunt down all of them within a fixed period of time.
Each team that collects the maximum number of glowing sticks from the opposite team wins but we had to be really careful because we were playing in the dark. Other teams played it was a good game to pass the time
Then it was our team turn to find the glowing sticks as I was with Nick we were checking same then I stopped him
"I think we should split up" I whispered
"You want to split up?" looking at me with a shocked face
"Don't look at me like that; we need cover more fields for in case our team loses we don't get blamed"
"Good point, okay be careful" Nick said
"You two" I whispered then we went on the opposite directions
As I looked around it was so dark and getting darker by the passing second I was like what a hell was I thinking even though I was holding the flashlight I was scared out of my wits.
Suddenly I bumped into someone causing us to drop our flashlights that went off to fall as we hit the floor I just found my shocked in the dark feeling my lips against someone's lips after couple of seconds it's then I realized I just kissed someone quickly that person stand up and runs away from there with saying anything.
I didn't return to the team I just went straight to the cabin all was on my mind was that kiss I kept on wondering who did I kiss, I sat down on my bed
"What do I do, should I tell Nick no I don't even know who that person was" whispered to myself
I look at the table then I see a folded paper I got up and walked to the table I take the paper and open it to read it
"Dear Tyler
You know you amaze me knowing you how much you hate sports and activities you did a pretty damn good I suggest you rethink this whole sport thing seeing you sweaty and dirty just made me admirer you more and more.
Your secret admirer (Oceans)
I sat back in my bed wondering what in the heavens was going on I was confused as a mouse was it Alex his been dropping hints on me
"Nick was right, this red team can be danger or something else."
